So sorry to hear that. I have had times where my support system has fallen apart and it was very tough. Over time I have built up a new one, as fragile as it is. I too am working on strengthening my support system. It takes time and energy, something I lack right now, well the energy part. Thankfully, I have great parents but they are getting old and I have to prepare myself for the time they will not be able to support me so much or pass away.

Great that you still have your sense of humour. Hold onto that it will help get you through tough times.
